Finally finished Medal Of Honor - Frontline. Totally guessed the actor playing the Colonel who does all the briefings. Helped that I actually did a show with him at old job (Morgan Sheppard).
So I get through the whole game, gold medals all around (finally), and realize that this game is too old to add points to my gamertag on Xbox live. D'oh! Oh well.

[frowns at the test results, muttering to himself.]Is it the little pink plus sign or the little pink minus sign that's good? I can never remember. Oh, frak it...[grabs a "phone"] Good news, Admiral. I am completely (mostly) certain that the Chief is not at this precise moment a Cylon. Probably.
BSG
Thank you, Doctor. In that case, I am completely (mostly) certain that I will:
Play an XO-1 on Chief Tyrol.
BSG
On COs from the Chief, he will be activating Weapons Control to fire at the basestar.
Since this is a die roll, SPs are in effect. Please post or send COs about interrupts. I have COs from Chief and Adama.
BSG
Starbuck's a toaster and President Ferret is out of cards, so it's really just Helo now.
BSG
SPs won't increase the damage of a shot on basestar, just increase the probability that damage happens, right?
And it`d take 3 damages to destroy it regardless, right? Although we may be able to prevent it from spitting stuff out at us all the time.
BSG
Yes, it takes 3 damage to destroy a basestar.
ETA: Helo, are your COs still in effect?
